Photographer: Allen C. Browne
Taken: April 14, 2018
Caption: Negro Man, Sam
Additional Description: TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD. Ran away from the subscriber, on Sunday, the 8th of November, my negro man, SAM, who calls himself Samuel Tyler. He is of ordinary stature, about 5 feet 9 or 10 inches high; of rather a copper color; remarkably handsome, and genteel in his appearance. As this servant has had great privileges, he has no doubt accumulated considerable money, and wi11 probab1y change his c1othing. He has taken with him a handsome blue frock coat, one gray coatee with stee1 buttons, one drab-colored overcoat, one pair of blue pantaloons, and one new pair of light mixed c1oth. He wen off without provocation, and I have no doubt but he has gone immediate1y for some free State.
I will give $50 if taken in Prince George's county, and in the District of Columbia; $100 if taken out of the county, an in the State of Maryland; and the abovce reward if taken any where else.

JOHN H. BAYNE, Near Alexandria.
